Murray,
When it comes to software, it's always A good idea to look before you
leap, but if you download all the latest patches from Adobe, you
shouldn't have any issues.
If you have templates for generated list files (TOC, Index etc) you may
want to consider rebuilding them within the FM8 environment - just to be
on the safe side. I rebuilt my more complex gen-list templates, the rest
I re-saved in FM8, and all of them seem to be working okey-dokey.
Blessings,
DJ

I have an opportunity to leap several versions and upgrade from FM 6 to
FM 8.
My manager wants to know "Do you see any issues migrating to 8 - it is
seamless? All our old files are compatible?"
